Against a plain, unchanging blue screen, a densely interwoven soundtrack of voices, sound effects and music attempt to convey a portrait of Derek Jarman's experiences with AIDS, both literally and allegorically, together with an exploration of the meanings associated with the colour blue.

Writing
Jarman's diaries as poetry—raw, funny, furious, tender.
Direction
One color, maximum impact. Radical minimalism as political act.
Director
Derek Jarman
